Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

IndiaThe only problem we faced was locating the hotel on GPS... it showed a different location every time.
The hotel was clean and comfortable with all the basic facilities. The hostess Neel was extremely helpful and friendly which made us feel so much at home. She arranged for transportation whenever we needed it and suggested restaurants and places of interest.

IndiaThere were frequent power cuts in the area, which meant that the air conditioning was not always available. However, the property had backup power to supply basic necessities.
I liked the fact that the beach was accessible, and the staff were quite friendly. They also had a good collection of books, games, and activities that made the stay enjoyable. The rooms were also pretty decent.

Would highly recommend Casa De Neel if you are planning to visit and stay in Auroville. The highlight of this place is its location in terms of close proximity to the beach as well as restaurants in the vicinity. The decor has been done beautifully with artwork and wall paintings. The rooms are located over 3 floors and are clean &well maintained. The host, Neel is very helpful and treats all guests as friends. She shared her suggestions for which all places to explore in Auroville, which cafés to visit, etc. Casa De Neel truly lives up to its name of ‘House of Neel’!

Casa De Neel is in a perfect location, close to Pondicherry down town and the white town and close to Auroville beach and the Auroville spiritual community. A short tuk tuk or motorbike rental is all you need to get everywhere. We loved Casa De Neel and Neel, the owner was so welcoming and kind. She helped us book future travel bus tickets and was very accommodating for our needs. We enjoyed the common space for games and art and Neel even ordered us complimentary breakfast our last morning before taking a bus to Chennai. We highly recommend this Homestay. It was also off the main road and much quieter than most places we have stayed in India.

India-The kitchen and the common shared fridge could have been cleaner. -I was travelling with my pet and there were naphthelene balls and potpourri in the room, which can be hazardous Please be mindful of the same going forward.
It is a quaint place just 20 mins from white town and 2 km from Serenity Beach. The rooms were clean and hygienic. The owner is very humble and sweet. In spite of the terrace patio being under renovation , the Ambience was lovely with a bonfire, good crowd and good music. The common room is vibrant with eclectic artefacts, board games, art supplies and books. You have the freedom to order in your own food or even cook if you want. The best part is that it is pet friendly. All in all it was a home away from home.

IndiaThat our trip was short and we couldn't stay longer.
Oh where do i begin with this wonderful experience and the extra amazing host. Firstly the effort that's been poured in to the interior and the exterior of the place to make you feel like you're in Santorini. Then the energy this place has is very calming and artistic. And now about Neel, not very often we come across hosts like Neel, who makes you truly feel at home. She was kind enough to take care of all our needs and our safety since we were on our all girls trip. She's very hospitable. And lastly, yes it's true what they say, 'At Casa de Neel, you come as guests and leave as friends'. Definitely i'll be visiting again.
